Job 27:2
“As surely as God lives, who has deprived me of justice —
What it says
He swears by the living God, who has taken away his justice and made his soul bitter.
What it is doing
This verse joins reverence for God with the honesty of Job's complaint.
In context
1Job continued his discourse: 2“As surely as God lives, who has deprived me of justice — 3as long as my breath is still within me 4my lips will not speak wickedness, 5I will never say that you are right; 6I will cling to my righteousness and never let go.
